NOTE: Insight Manager, iLO, or the IML Log can determine which component requires
replacement if a possible reason for an amber or red LED is a failed processor, PPM, DIMM,
or fan.
A port 84 LED reading can be translated into a hexadecimal code and used for
troubleshooting. Refer to Appendix E, “LEDs and Switches,” for the location of the
port 84 LED, or to the HP ProLiant BL40p Server Blade Maintenance and Service
Guide for a listing of the codes. Port 84 can also be seen using iLO.
